After reading Steve’s comment about conditions in PLPP yesterday, we had to go check it out one more time, and we’re glad we did. Considering it’s April, and the warm weather we’ve had, the conditions were great. It was mostly overcast and -1, so the snow is staying cold and…
New tracks, sun, blue sky, deep snow and blizzard conditions. Starting out on Elk Pass today, we had beautiful grooming and new tracks. There was already about 1 cm of new snow on the trail, but all things considered, we were thrilled to be skiing on some cold snow and good…
Snow and cooler temps needed If any of the wax technicians from the National Ski Team are reading this, we need your help:) Trails in Peter Lougheed Prov Park are icy. Slushy if they’re in the sun. It was very difficult getting any kind of grip wax to work properly, and it’s…
Hi Bob, I was out for a ski at West Bragg Creeek this morning. It was a glorious day – bright blue sky and temperatures in the -5 to -10 range. I skied Iron Springs – Elbow Trail – Loggers and Moose Loop. Conditions were generally excellent – most of it was trackset with the…
It doesn’t get any better than this It remains to be seen what the warm weather will do the trails, but so far, it’s still excellent conditions in PLPP in K-Country. Skiing in -2 is much nicer than the freezing cold of -25 which we’ve recently experienced. Arlene, Ray and I…

Kananaskis Country – PLPP update The fresh snow and cooler temperatures have really helped conditions in K-Country. Most trails are covered with fresh snow, but are still in good condition. As you can see in the photo above, there’s lots of new snow on Tyrwhitt and only one track has…
It was a real contrast in snow conditions between the north end and south end of PLPP(Peter Lougheed Prov Park) ski trails in K-Country yesterday. The south end trails such as Elk Pass, Blueberry, Tyrwhitt remain in excellent condition while the north end is a mixed bag. At the top…
If you stayed home to watch the ‘Riders and Stamps, you missed out on a wonderful day of skiing. Besides idling, why not make your stay a worth while and play Zehngames online casino. It is a good way to regulate yourself before going skiing. Considering it is not even…
All XC skiers know that God lives on Tyrwhitt. You can now ski an entire loop on trackset trails from Boulton Creek parking lot. Whiskey Jack, Tyrwhitt, Elk Pass or Hydroline, Fox Creek, Moraine. *Novice skiers, please take note of my warning at the bottom of this post. In today’s…
